I could see the absolute best lineup of all time and be like “oh never mind” once I see it’s at the Merriweather post pavilion lol

The way you know you’ve just experienced an incredible concert is when the artist pauses the concert for several minutes to warn the audience that haters are gonna say that the concert was not good but don’t believe them because in fact the concert was good 🤩🙌🏻🔥
JAY-Z addresses the hate he’s been receiving online recently, on night two at SoFi Stadium:
“Y’all gotta be very aware what’s going on in the world, right? People will tell you that nobody was in here tonight, but you got eyes, you can see. People will tell you that the music wasn’t great, but you got ears. [...] Question everything in this world of AI.”

I know this is bait but having played berghain honestly nothing comes close to the right Oakland party
My experience partying all night at Berghain in Berlin made me think of how we're lacking this experience in the San Francisco tech scene. We can literally become the coolest, most tasteful social scene on Earth if we had our version of Berghain, but better. So let's build it. The best aspect of Berhain is how they select who gets in. The club has a vibe and atmosphere, and if you aren't wearing the right clothes or have the right demeanor, you don't get in. That's how you cultivate a tasteful crowd. We can improve on this by only letting in high agency, talented operators in the tech scene who can still pull off dope outfits, so no geeks. SF is in dire need of late night venues, and Berghain goes until 8am. That's a little too crazy for high net worth operators who are changing the world so we could do something like 2am. Berghain also is kinda dark and in a weird building so we'd put the club in a SoMa corporate office that we convert to speakeasy or barcade vibe. Maybe add a quiet area for people to bring their laptops and work? I honestly feel like we're improving on the Berghain form here, especially by swapping out the crowd of weird partiers in inappropriate clothes (or lack there of) with insanely cracked founders and engineers. I'm super stoked about this idea, SF tech could really run the dopest parties on the planet.
Regardless of how you *feel* about guns, the idea that the situation in the US regarding their ubiquity of them (and thus situational advisability of having one yourself) would change without something rivaling the Cultural Revolution is genuinely ridiculous

covid paired with inflation and lack of disposable income is probably the larger culprit
